Book 4, 2015
Jan. 9th, 2015 10:28 pmAs of five minutes ago, I finished reading A Taste Fur Murder, which is the first book in author Dixie Lyle's "Whiskey, Tango & Foxtrot Mystery" series.
Deirdre "Foxtrot" Lancaster is the administrative assistant to an eccentric millionairess. The estate contains an animal cemetery, and when Foxtrot begins seeing animal spirits there, it's just the beginning of her adventures. She is joined by her dead cat Tango and a ghost dog who can assume any canine shape at will.
When another member of the staff is murdered, Foxtrot knows her boss was the main target, and she begins investigating, with the help of Tango and Tiny.
This was a cute story. I enjoyed Foxtrot's interactions with Tango and Tiny, along with the other animal spirits she encountered. Secondary characters were portrayed well, and it will be interesting to see how they interact in future stories. While the overall tone of the book was light, there were some scenes that provided plenty of thrills. I am anxious to read more!
Four stars:
★★★★
